Andjelo on Boginja: “We talk, but there's no rush”

Andjelo Rankovic has finally put a number on the thing everyone kept asking about, and the number is zero. There is no relationship with Tanja Stijelja, the reality contestant everyone calls Boginja. There are phone calls, there are messages, and there is a joint television appearance booked for a few days from now.

The former model and Elita contestant was linked with Boginja while both were living at the compound in Simanovci. Viewers read it as a romance waiting for the cameras to switch off. The season ended, nothing followed, and the silence started saying more than anything either of them said inside the house.

What Andjelo actually said about Boginja

Rankovic described the whole thing calmly. He first mentioned a recent studio appearance and the situation between Boginja and Ivan, then moved straight to the question he gets everywhere he goes.

Two days ago I was on the show, what happened between Ivan and her happened, everything that was there. We have spoken, we are in touch. In a couple of days we will be on a show together. We will see after that, there is time for us to meet, we are in no rush

The last clause is the one that matters. People who intend to start a relationship rarely announce that there is plenty of time. Rankovic denies nothing, he simply refuses to speed anything up, and that is a familiar position for contestants who leave a reality show knowing the audience is still counting.

Are Andjelo Rankovic and Boginja together?

By his own account, no. Contact yes, relationship no. What is confirmed is that they have spoken and that they will meet in front of cameras rather than privately.

That lines up with what people close to Boginja were saying earlier. Her friend Nevena publicly questioned how deep his feelings run, while accepting that the attraction is real.

I think there is a strong physical attraction between them, but his reactions do not give me the impression of deeper emotions

Nevena’s read and Rankovic’s own words point the same way from opposite sides. She says he does not show enough, he says he is not in a hurry. Their shared appearance in a few days will be the first time the two of them stand next to each other outside the compound, and it will be far easier to read than any statement given separately.

It is also worth recalling that Stanija Dobrojevic showed interest in Rankovic on air, so he did not leave the show with an uncomplicated situation around him.

Filip Car and Andjela Djuricic enter Elita 10

Rankovic was also asked about Filip Car and Andjela Djuricic joining Elita 10. Their relationship was one of the most replayed storylines of recent seasons, so the casting news did not surprise him.

I expected that, the subject of the two of them was raised a lot. They are big reality names

In one sentence he explained the casting rule himself: a name people already argue about is worth more than a new face. The same logic explains why his own name, paired with Boginja’s, keeps circulating even though there is nothing official to report. An unfinished story is material, and material is never spent all at once.

The next step has a date attached. In a few days they sit down for the same show, and only then will it become clear whether “we are in no rush” means something is being prepared or that nothing at all is coming.
